Beehive Moms is a place where moms can build community and feel support during the early years of motherhood.

We run small groups and provide individual therapy in Arlington Center, just outside of Boston.

What we offer

We run 6-week groups for first and second (or third) time moms in the first few months postpartum.

Along with our groups, we also offer individual therapy with Marah Pinnolis, LICSW, MEd, PMH-C in-person in Arlington and online for people in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, and Washington DC.

Every group is led by a therapist. That's one of the things that makes Beehive Moms different — you're not just in a room with other moms, you're in a room with other moms and someone trained to hold space for what comes up.

Hi, I’m Marah.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Counselor (PMH-C), and a mom of two toddlers. I founded Beehive Moms because I wanted to create the thing I wished for when I was a new mom — a space to meet other new moms going through it just like me.

When I had my first baby, I felt overwhelmed and anxious. It was in those first weeks that I found support, especially from other new moms. They were the people I relied on, that I turned to for every question, that I texted in the middle of the night.

That's why I built Beehive Moms. So other new moms don't have to go out and search for that community. Instead, Beehive Moms is the place you can come to feel support and to feel comfort.

I studied at Boston University, where I earned both my Master of Social Work and Master of Education. My perinatal training is through Postpartum Support International. I work as a holistic therapist, drawing from relational, attachment-based, psychodynamic, somatic, mindfulness-based, and CBT frameworks depending on what each person needs.

what people are saying


“Marah is wonderful. She has created a safe and welcoming space for local moms to support each other as we sail the choppy seas of sleep deprivation and postpartum struggles. She's a mom and a therapist as well as an excellent group facilitator. I highly recommend signing up for a group.”
